!Weird skin patch getting bigger!?

[laurathesixth]

I am a brand new beardie owner. Kazul was pretty much abandoned by some teenagers who raised her, so I adopted her. She's between 6 and 7 years old and I've only had her for about 3 weeks. She had this white patch on her head with a kind of dark gray/black outline when I got her.
At first I didn't know anything so I thought it was just a normal color variation. Then I thought maybe she was shedding, but it didn't go away or flake or anything. Now the dark grey seems to have popped up on her right forearm and the area around the patch is starting to look yellow.
Please help, I don't know enough to know if this is normal or not. I've tried researching, but I can't find anything that sounds like this.

Hello,

Wow, that is quite an odd looking skin patch. It is most likely fungal in nature though not yellow fungus anyway.
Has it continued to get larger since you got her?
You can try getting some unpasteurized honey & treating it initially. I would consider taking her to the vet so that they can do a skin culture to help & determine what it could be.
How is her appetite?

It's just now starting to get the yellow area around the initial patch, which she's had since I got her so who knows how long it's been there. I've only had her for a few weeks, so it's hard to tell what a "normal" appetite looks like for her - although I've seen it drop off a little bit since I got her. She goes through about 3 dozen large crickets a week and eats a bit of collard greens or squash every day.

I wonder if it's a piebald bearded dragon ? They are rare.....I can't tell if that's an injury or fungal problem like Tracie said. The unpasteurized honey is cheap [ like from a health food store ] + will be good for the skin anyway just in case. If you Google " piebald bearded dragon " you'll see pics of this odd coloring....but again, I'm not sure if that's what it is. It's good that she's eating well though and appears to be plump.
